Imagine concrete extruded from a computer-controlled nozzle, rather like an enormous pastry icer “building” a layer cake. This is how 3D concrete printing (3DCP) works. It’s real and it has the ...

What if complex concrete structures could go from concept to construction in minutes? MIT's latest breakthrough could reshape the future of 3D printing.

A print nozzle sweeps back and forth around a small plot in Tempe, Ariz., and the walls of a single-family home begin to take shape. Two technicians keep an eye on the gantry-mounted 3D concrete ...

MIT researchers have developed a framework that solves a major hurdle in eco-friendly construction: ...

3D printing of concrete structures including homes has made a dent in the news, but less so when it comes to penetrating the market for new homes or commercial structures. Barriers to progress for ...

A first-of-its-kind 3D-printed concrete bridge has been unveiled in Venice, Italy. The bridge is a demonstration of a new 3D printing method resulting in a structure requiring no mortar or steel ...

3D printing has been unlocking new ways to solve bespoke issues for a long time now. One of the more interesting developments isn’t only what it can make, but what materials it can print. More ...

Using intricate geometry found in nature and refined through aerospace and biomedical design, scientists have now 3D-printed these forms into concrete to boost strength and capture carbon – creating a ...

Scientists have developed a technology where two robots can work in unison to 3D-print a concrete structure. Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed ...

Recently, Aims Community College announced the new program it is offering starting in July 2024 for students to learn about 3D printing in construction and concrete. This class in Greeley, Colo. is ...

New research addresses some of the technical issues that still need to be solved for 3D printed concrete to be strong enough for use in more free-form structures. Researchers found lobster-inspired ...

3D printing (as known as three-dimensional printing) is a type of rapid prototyping technology. It is a technology that uses powdered metal or plastic and other bondable materials to construct objects ...
